Once and awhile a book comes along that touches your senses and raises your emotions, FISH is just such a book. Flick Ford's beautiful watercolors of the 77 fish species are the best since S.F.Denton did his over 100 years ago. These complimented by the moving and lighthearted text of Dean Travis Clarke as well as Peter Kaminsky's introduction make this book sure to be a timeless classic. It's the type of book the reader can pick up at any time and turning to any page leave ourselves to go to that place inside that brings us all the peace we experience streamside, casting into a rolling surf, or trolling a pattern offshore. FISH is a perfect book, and anyone who even remotely loves the sport of angling or appreciates these amazing creatures should have a copy in their library and one wrapped as a gift for that special angling friend.

Earlier this week I received my copy of FISH: 77 Great Fish of North America and I am absolutely amazed. It is a superb book, beautifully written with stunning artwork. I rarely purchase what I would consider "coffee-table" or collector-type books, but I am extremely pleased with this book. I have spent several wonderful hours going through it -- and enjoyed it immensely. It will be a treasured book in my library and reminds me a great deal of the early James Audubon bird books. For any dedicated angler or fish enthusiast it is a "must-have."

This book is the perfect book for the fishing enthusiast. More than met my expectations. Was delivered within just a few days. Very happy with this order and product.

A great book to give as a gift when someone asks you to join them for fishing or hunting. Economical and a super book at the same time.

Gave this to my husband for his birthday after seeing the artist etc. on a TV show. He was thrilled, the pictures were really sharp and clear and it made for very interesting reading. Just loved it.

The paintings are incredibly beautiful and text is informative. Great
coffee table book for a sports fisherman and lover of art.

bought for a christmas gift...and was perfect. shipping, packaging, price!

thanks

I purchased this book for my husband as a gift. He wanted it to put on our coffee table. The cover of the book has a crease down the middle of it. After what I paid for this book, is there anyway I can exchange it for one that does not have a crease down the middle.

Thank you.
